Glenn Crytzer Quartet: The Songbook Sessions Vol. 5
Νοσταλγική, αισιόδοξη βραδιά jazz
Glenn Crytzer and his quartet celebrate the release of Vol. 5 from their fan-funded "Songbook Sessions" project. Born during the 2020 pandemic shutdowns, the band transformed Glenn’s NYC apartment into a recording studio to document 10 songs per week over a 25-week period. Moving chronologically from 1920 to 1944, the ensemble meticulously researched original sheet music and early recordings to bring authentic melodic and harmonic choices to their performances. The project fostered a dedicated online community of listeners and now culminates in this live performance. The music is described by historians and fans as a living, breathing continuation of the jazz tradition, vividly bringing vintage sounds to life without feeling like a museum piece. The quartet features guitar, trumpet, reeds, and bass in a swinging tribute to the Jazz Age.
